Abstract

We study the first gravitational wave, GW150914, detected by advanced LIGO and constructed from the data of measurement of strain relative deformation of the fabric of spacetime. We show that the time series from the gravitational wave obeys Tsallis' q-Gaussian distribution as a probability density and its dynamics evolves from the three associated Tsallis' indexes named q-triplet. This fact strongly suggests that these black hole merger systems behave in a non-extensive manner. Furthermore, our results point out that the entropic indexes obtained as a function of frequency are useful statistical parameters to determine the dominant frequency when black hole coalescence is achieved.
